March of Dimes is a near and dear charity to Frank and Christen, as well as both of their families. Frank and Ali were both born preterm, and without the help of the NICU staff and the medical equipment that the two of them were fortunate enough to have access to, Frank and Christen's journey today would look very different. Due to a genetic condition that Christen has inherited from her father, any future children that Frank and Christen may have, will also be at high risk for preterm delivery.

The second charity that we would like to honor with our family and friends is St. Jude's Children's Hospital, a research hospital that strives to ensure that no child or their family ever receives a bill for services rendered. St. Jude's was always close to Christen's dad's heart, and we would like you to consider donating to St. Jude's in his memory, as he passed away from COVID on September 15, 2021. While on patrol, Bob always had a bag full of stuffed animals to give to children that he encountered on the road who might be in need of a friend to help them out in a tough time, and was always found donating bags of stuff animals and toys to Pediatric Units at the local hospitals around the holidays. Please consider honoring his memory with us on our special day. You can do that here: http://events.stjude.org/ChristenAndFrank
